Depending upon the category, product and space requirements, some footnotes may not appear. In addition to spaces listed on these charts: • Armstrong floors may be used on stair steps, risers and landings. A manufactured slip-retardant nosing should always be applied on steps. • Most Armstrong commercial sheet floors can be flash coved (integral cove). Most building codes consider flash coving in the same category as baseboard trim with respect to fire rating. Consult applicable codes for the particular project to determine the interpretation of allowable height for flash cove. • Armstrong floors are not recommended for exterior use, for interior spaces where pointed spike golf or track shoes will be used, or in areas where the floor will be subjected to unusually concentrated static or dynamic loads. • Armstrong floors should not be used as wall covering or wall surfacing. 16 R N R N R R R R R R (a)In most cases veterinary applications are similar (b)Only operating rooms not requiring conductive flooring (e)Armstrong floors are not recommended for commercial kitchens and commercial food processing areas, including behind fast-food counters (g)Most Armstrong floors are not recommended for heavy industrial areas (h)Heat weld recommended (i)No standing water walk-off mats required (k)Heat weld only (l)Not recommended in laboratories that require special decontamination procedures on surfaces, including floors (m)Only homogeneous products are recommended in low temperature environmental conditioning units NOT below 34º F (1.0º C) Visit armstrong.com/ sheet • Call 1 877 276 7876 (1)Aseptic Area – Hygienic conditions are of critical importance (2)Water Resistance – Wet area installation is needed (flash coving, sealed seams) (3)Slip Retardance – A more secure walking surface is required (4)Surface Uneveness – The flooring surface should not interfere with chair or cart movements (5)Static control flooring is normally required in this area (6)Not recommended in areas that require electrostatic discharge control R Medintone Medintech Medley Products Medintone Medintech Medley C af et er C ia o / G mm Din ar e i ag rc ng A e ia C om W l P rea ( pu alk ark w in e) C t ay g om er (6 pu Re pa ) C or ter ir rid T A re or rai D a ni at ng a W R E o a le om va reh ou to E r si nt n ry g w La a va y/F oy to Lo ry er bb (i) y Lu nc hr O ffi oo C ce m on /A (e ) fe d re m S nc ini ta e str irw R at Te a oo iv le y/L m e/ co a m nd U til m ing ity un /S to ica tio ra g ns e C R en oo te m r s Products C le an R C om oo m pu C om ter pu La b D R at ter a Tr ep W ai ai E r ar ni le ng Ar e ct ea ro ho R u E oo ni si le c ng m ct s ro Te E st nv nic C iro s M ing on n an La di m b uf e tio n O n ta ac ffi tu ce ing l rin / U P g ni ho Co to nfe t (m r P P ) ro en ro ce ce du ss R c R oo in es tio n g m ea La S bo m rch al ra L lP a to ar bo S ry te ra ts ril to A e ry s Te P s e a le m co ck bl m ag y m ing un ic at io ns C en te r ASSISTED LIVING/ MILITARY HOUSING/ LIGHT COMMERCIAL Products A ct iv ity B ea Ro om ut y /C C S or om al rid on o D /B mo ay r n ar ca A be re re D r a S in A ho in re g p a A D re oc a to (e r ) R es /De nt id en is R t es c O id e B ffi en c a R ce th e es ro id K en itc om ce he (i n ) R (e oo ) m /B ar ra ck Medintone™ Medintech® Medley™ H R H N N (6) N H N R = Recommended Flooring choice(s) that are suitable for the space.

D BÂ D U EIL CA NADA CONS U TIM ENT DURAB LE MEMBER / MEMBRE Subjective ratings (excellent, very good, good, fair) are in relation to other Armstrong commercial resilient floors. Ratings are not directly related to any one test. They are broadly based on tests and experience of Armstrong Research and Development under varying conditions and circumstances. These ratings should not be used for comparison to ratings used by other manufacturers to rank their own products. Fire Test Data ASTM E 648 Flooring Radiant Panel Critical Radiant Flux – 0.45 watts/cm2 or more – Class I ASTM E 662 Smoke Chamber Specific Optical Smoke Density – 450 or less CAN/ULC – S102.2-07 Flame Spread Rating – 100 Smoke Developed Classification – 280 Numerical flammability ratings alone may not define the performance of the product under actual fire conditions. These ratings are provided only for use in the selection of products to meet the specified limits. INSTALLATION Job Conditions Subfloors/underlayments shall be dry, clean and smooth. They shall be free from paint, varnish, solvents, wax, oil, existing adhesive residue, permanent markers and other indelible ink markers or any other foreign matter. Procedure Medintone, Medintech and Medley must be installed full spread using Armstrong S-599 Adhesive or S-543 High Moisture Adhesive with the option to use S-580 Adhesive in flash cove areas. Seams must be heat welded or sealed with Armstrong S-761 Seam Adhesive. In areas with heavy concentrated static or dynamic loads, it may be necessary to install with S-240 High Performance Epoxy Flooring Adhesive. Detailed installation instructions can be found at armstrong.com. MAINTENANCE These products are designed to be maintained using traditional resilient flooring maintenance methods. These floors may be maintained by polishing, spray-buffing or dry buffing. The urethane protective finish can make initial maintenance easier, as well as reduce ongoing maintenance procedures. Initial Maintenance Immediately After Installation • Sweep or vacuum thoroughly. • Damp mop with a properly diluted neutral detergent solution such as Armstrong S-485 Floor Cleaner – carefully wiping up black marks and excessive soil. • Do not wash, scrub or strip the floor for at least four days after installation. Preparation for Commercial Use For specific, ongoing maintenance procedures see Commercial Resilient Flooring Maintenance Recommendations booklet, F-8663 or armstrong.com. WARRANTIES Armstrong warrants its regular (first quality) commercial floors and wall base to be free from manufacturing defects and warrants the installation integrity for five years from the date of purchase, if installed according to the installation and maintenance instructions at armstrong.com. This warranty extends only to the original end-user. See Armstrong Commercial Floor Warranty, F-3349 or visit armstrong.com for warranty details, limitations and exclusions. For more detailed requirements of concrete, wood and metal subfloors, as well as trowelable and wood underlayments, refer to the installation instructions at armstrong.com. Moisture testing must be performed on all concrete slabs regardless of their age or grade level including areas where resilient flooring has already been installed. Moisture Vapor Emission Rate (MVER) using Calcium Chloride (ASTM F1869) and/or percent internal relative humidity (ASTM F 2170) tests must be conducted in strict accordance with the most current edition of the ASTM test method. Following are Armstrong’s maximum allowable moisture limits: • When using S-599 Adhesive, moisture test results shall not exceed a MVER of 5.0 lbs./1000 sq. ft./24 hours per ASTM F 1869 and/or 85% rH per ASTM F 2170. • When using S-240 Adhesive, moisture test results shall not exceed a MVER of 8.0 lbs./1000 sq. ft./24 hours per ASTM F 1869 and/or 90% rH per ASTM F 2170. • When using Flip® Spray Adhesive, moisture test results shall not exceed 93% rH per ASTM F 2170. • When using S-543 Adhesive, moisture test results shall not exceed a MVER of 5.0 lbs. /1000 sq. ft. /24 hours per ASTM F 1869 and/or 90% RH per ASTM F 2170. The knowledge and technical support you need to bring your vision to life. On installations where both the Moisture Vapor Emission Rate and percent internal relative humidity tests are conducted, results for both tests shall comply with the allowable limits listed above. Online Chat: armstrong.com/commercialflooring Technical: floorexpert.com Before installation concrete floors should also be tested for pH following procedures in ASTM F 710. When testing for pH, the allowable readings for the installation of Armstrong homogeneous sheet flooring are 5 to 9 when using S-599 and/or S-240 and 5 to 11 when using S-543 and/or Flip® Spray Adhesive 1 877 armstrong (276 7876) Choose Option 2 then: Option 1 - Order samples and literature Option 3, 3 - Talk to your Techline flooring expert Option 8 - Contact your local Armstrong representative Website Phone Bond Tests should also be conducted for compatibility with the substrate. Temperature shall be maintained at a minimum of 65° F (18° C) and a maximum of 100° F (38° C) for 48 hours prior to installation, during installation and 48 hours after completion when using S-599 or S-543. When using S-240, the temperature shall be maintained at a minimum of 65° F (18° C) and a maximum of 85° F (29° C) for 48 hours prior to installation, during installation and 48 hours after completion.
